Ok guys, here are your choices. Which one of these do you like best and use the most? Also if you use custom colored text and/or windows, tell us what colors you use.
Choice 1: Default Blue Choice 2: Dark Gray Metallic Choice 3: Icy Blue Texture Choice 4: Woodgrain Choice 5: Brown Stone Choice 6: Greenish Rock Choice 7: Bright Green Leaves Choice 8: Crazy Chocobos Choice 9: Custom Color I like the brown stone the most but sometimes I use the woodgrain. Both of these look natural and arn't too light or dark. Plus it's easy to read the text. -------------------- FFXI (Siren server) Tauu the Windurstian Tarutaru! White Mage & Paladin |

I liked icy blue, but I would make it darker and a little more blue.

I'm probably the only here who's going to say this but....
I like the 'crazy chocobo' one. I always thought that one looked more like a hen on a nest than a chocobo. I love it though. -------------------- kame, tortue, tortuga, schildkröte, tartaruga, turtle "Arthur Dent?" "Yes." "Arthur Philip Dent?" "Yes." "You're a total knee biter." |

I never really had a favorite...I'd just alternate between Dark Grey Metallic, Woodgrain, Brown Stone, Greenish Rock, and Bright Green Leaves. So I can't vote.

I always used either "dark, grey metallic" or "custom color" whenever I played.

Well, the default theme always screamed "FINAL FANTASY VI!" to me, so that's the one I always used.

I mostly play with custom colour. And then I choose my favourite colour in the world: DEEP PURPLE (some call it Violet)!
But I am a fan of the woodgrain and the greenish rock too. But I just don't use the alternative window styles (apart from customized). -------------------- People say I'm a slow learner, but I type fast! |

As much as I love to customize, I always go with the default blue for FF6. I just like it the best.

i almost always go for the icy blue with a red font, but sometimes i take one of the palettes and change the colors around to a mix of reds and purples.

I tend to change my window color to match the environment. My favorite, however, might be the water or greenish stone. I don't use custom except to make an all black version of the default blue.

In each game, the default is usually what seems to go best with it. I like the blue for I-VII, but the blue doesn't go well with FFIX.

I tend not to worry about this stuff as long as I can easily see the text on it, so I left it at the default, which I voted for.

I alway use a modified Icy Blue, I take off all the blue and green on all palettes save the 2nd last, which goes to full black.
the Blood-red veins look mighty awesome. I'll post a pic either in 1 hour, or 24, depending on my mood when I get home from work. |

Default. The first 5 or 6 times I played through, I didn't even realize that you could change the menu color. By the time I found out, I was so used to default that it didn't seem right playing with anything else.

I usually choose the one you call "icy blue texture" but I change it so that it is deep red and black. So I call it "Lava field texture."

i wanted to vote for greenish stone, but i accidently clicked the grey mettalic, cause to me the greenish stone looks more grey to me. O well, the green/grayish stone is what i play with.
